Game-theoretic analysis of an aerial jamming attack on a UAV communication network

In this paper, we consider a differential game theoretic approach to compute optimal strategies by a team of UAVs to evade the attack of an aerial jammer on the communication channel. We formulate the problem as a zero-sum pursuit-evasion game. The cost function is the termination time of the game. We use Isaacs´ approach to derive the necessary conditions to arrive at the equations governing the saddle-point strategies of the players. We illustrate the results through simulations.
